Description

The Mile Marker is a cast iron structure with a triangular shape. It rises from a moulded plinth to a wider top that slopes back to an edge roll moulding. On the left side, there is raised cast lettering that reads "TOWYN / 6," and on the right side, it reads "DOLGELLEY / 14."

Local climate

Mile Marker sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,360 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 96% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 94% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 25 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 73% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
